New solar system you can get to with a gate
- Has its own currency
- Schematics are not needed there
But you can't take anything from one system to the other except blueprints.
Pro:
- Long time builders keep there builds and factories
- Money made from exploits has no influence in the new system
- Community does not need to split: you can go back and forth between your old base and new ones
- PVP and planet PVP could be added there without having too much impact: for planet PVE you can stay in the current system
Con:
- Needs some coding and (preferably) some new planets. Although a straight copy would work
So basically similar to option 3, but without having to split the community
